AKRON, Ohio -- A federal jury this afternoon asked for clarification on one of the final four counts against former Cuyahoga County Commissioner Jimmy Dimora, whose case they have been deliberating for six days in his federal racketeering trial.

Dimora and his defense attorneys, along with federal prosecutors and the defense attorney for co-defendant Michael Gabor, returned to the courtroom of U.S. District Judge Sara Lioi about 1:15 today to hear the question she had been given by the jury.

The charges against Dimora are found in a 37-count, 148-page
federal indictment (known as the Third Superseding Indictment, which replaced a 36-count indictment filed earlier), alleging that he used his county commissioner's office as the base to run a criminal enterprise.

Dimora is on trial along with Gabor, of
Parma, a former office assistant in the auditor's office. Gabor is accused of bribery and conspiracy, including a charge that he tried to pay a judge $10,000 to fix his divorce case.
